EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving captures a scene from the play "Asmodeus; or, The Devil on Two Sticks" at the New Adelphi Theatre in London during the 19th century. Titled "The Gardens of the Palace of the Dey of Algiers" this print showcases an exquisite stage design that transports viewers to a lush and enchanting setting. The image depicts a grand palace garden, meticulously adorned with vibrant flowers, towering palm trees, and intricately designed fountains. The attention to detail is remarkable, as every element seems to come alive within this theatrical world. One can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through the leaves and hear distant melodies floating in the air. The play itself revolves around Asmodeus, a mischievous devil who takes pleasure in observing human follies from his perch atop two sticks. This particular scene immerses audiences into an exotic location filled with mystery and allure – Algiers' palace gardens under moonlight. This engraving not only serves as a visual representation of a specific moment within the play but also stands alone as a work of art. Its intricate composition and skillful execution make it worthy of admiration beyond its connection to theater. Preserved in private collection for years, this print now offers us a glimpse into both historical theater productions and artistic craftsmanship from centuries past. It reminds us of how art has always been intertwined with storytelling, transporting audiences to different worlds through imagination and creativity.
